This assessment requires students to prepare a portfolio. A portfolio can be seen as both a product and a process:

  • As a product, it holds the work records and documents you have produced during the course, and represents an edited collection of your learning achievements.
  • As a process, it enables you to monitor your own learning systematically, reflect on your learning performance, present a coherent account of your achievements, and obtain feedback on your learning.

This individual assessment task should be 1500 words (+/- 10%) and accounts for 45% of the marks for this unit. The portfolio comprises six (6) parts.

  • Part 1 – Short Answer Question (600 words) – Significance of Recruitment and Selection – Critically discuss the significance of recruitment and selection to organisations today.
  • Part 2 – Position Description (300 words) – Interview a person known to you who is employed as a graduate employee and based on the analysis for his/her current job role prepare a position description.
  • Part 3 – Resume (300 words) – Assuming that you will soon graduate from CQUniversity, prepare your resume to apply for a “HR Recruitment Consultant” or similar recruitment position recently advertised on www.seek.com.au. You must search for an actual job advertisement. You may use a preferred resume format.
  • Part 4 – Resume self reflection (300 words) – Justify your choice of resume format used in Part 3 above.
  • Part 5 – References (not included in the word count) – Integrate a minimum of eight (8) peer reviewed scholarly references. These references are to back up your analysis provided in Part 1 and Part 4.
